Griffin appeal fixed for Friday

Jonathan Griffin’s appeal against his proposed dismissal as manager of the Kerry ladies football manager will take place on Friday, which was set to clash with the Ladies Gaelic Football Association (LGFA) in Dundalk.

However, the LGFA yesterday took the decision to postpone Congress until April 27 and 28 on foot of bad weather being forecasted.

In a bizarre step, the board had organised their monthly meeting for the same evening as the opening day of the organisation’s annual event, which members of the Kerry executive would have been be expected to attend.
